Here's a couple more demo's from Blyth Power (this is the last one I'll be posting up... honest). They were both recorded in 1986 at the Street Level Studios. There's also some of their other demo's from 84 & 85, as well as A Little Touch Of Harry In The Night. Click here to see them all.

I got this recording from an excellent music blog called Kill Your Pet Puppy. If you like anarcho-punk, new wave & reggae etc. then it's definitely worth a visit and seeing what you can find.

Here's a mix of some reggae, dub & a bit of dubstep. It was mixed by Version Big-Fi as part of the Stop That Train series. I'm not sure where I got this mix from but after a bit of searching I found the Stop That Train Blogspot where there are many more reggae & dub mixes available. If you like this mix then I recommend giving the Stop That Train site a visit.

The Penguin Cafe Orchestra was the creation of classically-trained guitarist, composer and arranger Simon Jeffes. Jeffes and cellist co-founder Helen Liebmann were the only core members throughout its life; a number of other musicians appeared on the PCO's six studio albums according to the requirements of particular pieces.

The Penguin's sound is not easily categorized, but has elements of exuberant folk music and a minimalist aesthetic occasionally reminiscent of composers such as Philip Glass (text from wikipedia.org).

Here's the tracklisting (256 mp3)...01) Music For A Found Harmonium02) Paul's Dance03) Heartwind04) Giles Farnaby's Dream05) Telephone And Rubber Band06) Beanfields07) Perpetuum Mobile08) From The Colonies09) Another One From The Colonies10) In The Back Of A Taxi11) Air A Danser12) Milk13) More Milk14) Prelude And Yodel15) Penguin Cafe Single16) White Mischief

This is a 30 minute collection of some dubstep mixed by DJ Mikron. Dubstep is a genre of electronic music that has its roots in London's early 2000's UK garage scene. Musically, dubstep is distinguished by its 2step rhythm, or use of snare sounds similar to 2step garage & grime, & an emphasis on bass, often producing "dark" sounds, but just as frequently producing sounds reminiscent of dub reggae.

Seeing as my mediafire account is no more and most of the download links are dead (links on rapidshare & netkups should be working fine) I will be re-uploading your requests for any of my existing posts. The new uploads will use www.netkups.com and as well as a normal download file you can also download them as a torrent.

So if you want anything from this site then just leave a request in the comments and I will upload it asap.
